If the world could vote

Postby Greatbloke » Tue Oct 28, 2008 5:17 pm

We would like to know who would be the next president of the United States of America - if the world could vote!

In the presidential election in 2004 122,267,553 people voted. 6,500,000,000 people did not.

Our mission is to get more people to vote than voted in the last election. Mission impossible, we know, but still, wouldn't it be great to see what the whole world thinks?

It's an interesting idea, though obviously not a very good random sample of people - most of the traffic is probably driven by popular websites like reddit and digg which have a strong left-wing bias. eg. if you look at the United States summary, there is an 80-20 in favour of Obama, which is siginificantly higher than the current popular vote statistics.

Mind you, I'm still an Obama supporter; I just hate dodgy statistics!

Just remember kids, McCain is an old bastard and if he dies or goes senile and shits his pants while in office, you get Sarah Palin as your president. Enough said I think.
Cheers,
